Dear John Letter lyrics

Song information

Artist: Bobby Bare
Album: Tunes For Two

Lyrics

[ skeeter ]
Dear john oh how I hate to write dear john I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another dear john
[ bobby ]
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be
Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won
But then I opened up the letter and that started dear john
Won't you please send back my picture my husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow
And it hurts me so to tell ye that my love for you has gone
But tonight I wed your brother dear john
[ skeeter ]
And tonight I wed another dear john
